According to the prosecutor of the case, Cpl Innocent Odugbo, the suspect, a resident of 221, Temple Heights, Flat 6, Banana Island, Lagos, had in July this year conspired with one Alex Sossou, a cook who is currently at large, to steal from the senator’s house. Continue…
The prosecutor said Amoussou had sometime back introduced Sossou
as a cook to Senator Anyanwu and even stood as a guarantor for Sossou
to be employed as a cook by the Senator at her Imo state house. Upon
his arrival at her home, Sossou is alleged to have broken into a safe
in her bedroom and stole the cash, jewelry as well as her land
documents. He thereafter absconded to his village in the Republic of
Benin. Efforts to get him arrested have so far yielded no result.
The accused, Amoussou pleaded not guilty to the charge of theft
and conspiracy. The Magistrate, Mrs O.O. Olanipekun granted him bail in
the sum of N10million with two sureties in the same sum and adjourned
the case to October 13th for hearing.
